Powerful Trio of "Buk-M3", "Pantsir-S1", and "Tor-2" Will Leave No Chance for "Neptune": Course for Elimination

9S36M Illumination Radars Will Acquire the Target at 60 km

The enemy at the front has begun to use self-propelled launchers of the multipurpose version of the anti-ship missile system R-360MC with modernized low-altitude tactical missiles R-360M "Neptune-MD".

Russian anti-aircraft missile systems in combination with each other will help to cope with them, said military expert Evgeny Damantsev.

He recalled that these tactical missiles have an RCS of about 0.25 m² due to the large array of the waveguide-slotted antenna array of the active-passive seeker.

Therefore, the 9S36M illumination radars of the Buk-M3 air defense system can capture them at a distance of up to 60 km at altitudes of more than 100 m and 30 km in low-altitude mode. The guidance radars of the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system and the Tor-M2 air defense system can capture them for accurate auto-tracking at a distance of 20 - 23 and 15 km, respectively.
